Here are some dog and cat houses — complete with a shaggy dog tale for you
I posted some information and links last week for those of you interested in building your own "cat condo." This post includes a true-life dog tale, and some quality dog and cat homes you might want to look at if you're in the market for pet houses.
First the story: About a year ago or so, my daughter and her husband got a beautiful German Shepherd/Chow mix dog from my son's veterinary girlfriend. The dog, named Ginny, had been abandoned at the pet emergency clinic where my son's girlfriend, I call her Doc, works overnight shifts.
Ginny needed a lot of calming, a lot of love, and some behavioral training. She's doing extremely well. But she's very shy around other pets, and especially frightened by my daughter's cat. The cat, named Dot, does not like Ginny, and hissed and scratched at her when Ginny first got to her new home.
So, a year ago last Christmas, Doc and my son bought my daughter a crate-cage just the right size for Ginny. It has become routine, when Ginny gets her food, to drag the dish inside her crate-cage sleeping quarters. She feels protected from the cat and can eat in peace. (Ginny also goes into her crate-cage simply when she wants some "me-time," though she's now getting along pretty well with Dot the terror cat.)
I tell you this story because the first product I'm offering below is a Cedar Indoor Dog House -- also suitable for cats; check the dimensions and functionality for yourself. If you've got a dog or cat with timidity problems, maybe it's something you can use.
NOTE: I am not a merchant and do not sell or ship pet products or pet supplies. I merely market for a variety of online merchants with useful pet products and supplies I'm happy to offer you as a convenience when I find something I think would be useful to you, my good pet lovers.
Enjoy:
